Description Christopher Aillon 2010-03-24 22:24:16 UTC
I just noticed that pidgin (well, more specifically, libpurple) is shipping its own certs.  There is some overlap here as some root certs that we ship are duplicated between pidgin and ca-certifaces, and additionally, pidgin is shipping some certs that have been refused into NSS so far (such as CACert).

Also, noticed that there is an option to build --with-system-ssl-certs that we aren't using.  We should consolidate here if possible.

Comment 1 Stu Tomlinson 2010-03-25 13:40:13 UTC
Unfortunately pidgin (libpurple) doesn't support multiple certificates in one file (ala ca-bundle.crt), so we can't use --with-system-ssl-certs (yet).

Comment 2 Christopher Aillon 2010-03-26 21:01:13 UTC
Oh, that kinda throws a damper on this doesn't it?  :-)  Is there an upstream bug to track that?

No, not that I know of.

But it has been on my personal TODO list for far too long, and your report was enough for me to do something about that.

Assuming I didn't screw it up too bad, Pidgin 2.7.0 will support using Fedora style system CA certs (in a bundle). It required additional API, so can't be backported to 2.6.x without breaking upstream versioning rules.
